Konlang

Konlang, short for constructed language, is a language created by a human designer, as opposed to a natural language that has evolved over time. Konlangs can be created for various purposes, such as for literature, games, or as a means of communication within a community. They can be entirely original or based on existing languages, with modifications or entirely new structures.

The design of a konlang can vary widely. Some konlangs may have a complex grammar system with multiple cases, tenses, and moods, while others may have a simpler structure with a more regular grammar. The vocabulary can also vary, with some konlangs using words from existing languages, while others create entirely new words.

Konlangs can be written or spoken, and may include a writing system. Some konlangs are designed to be easy to learn and use, while others may be more complex and challenging.

The study of konlangs is known as conlanging, and there are many online communities and forums dedicated to the creation and discussion of konlangs. Some notable konlangs include Tolkien's Elvish languages, such as Quenya and Sindarin, and the Klingon language from the Star Trek franchise.
